‘Speaking ‘of Sports Another loca} baseball team wili be n the making tonight when a meet- ing will be held at the Bacred Heart parish hall under the auspices of the young nem of the: parish and pre- liminary steps will be taken to form & baseball combination. The session will be held after churches services and all players in the city interested in the proposition, are invited to attend. The young meén of the parish have become vi- tally interested in tive athletic side of the pafish life and they propose to have the strongest possible combira- tion. Tentative plans, as fermed by the organization, reveal that the team will play home games and contests en*the road. It is cxpected that a manager will be chosen tonight and immediate steps will be taken to form a schedule for the year. The first practice session of the year will probably be held this week. The night and time will be announc- ed later. This will give New Britain four major baseball teams, three of them sponsored by Polish organizations in the city. The Falcons, Holy Cross and Sacred Heart nines are the Polish representatives while Johnny Tobin's Corbin Red 8ox is the fourth diamond combination. Add Kcnsington to these and there are five leading quintets which might figure in fhe city championship for the present season. Judge Stanley Traceski is gaining & ‘wide reputaiion as a baseball twirler and Pete Pajewski, as a catcher, makes a good politician. The judge has opencd the season for two teams already and he {8 classed as the best season starter this city has ever had. The Holy s team opened its campaign yesterday while a crowd cstimated at fully 2,000 fans looked on. This augurs well for the inter. €st being taken in the newly organ- ized diamond club. n High school fell before the St. Thomas' Seminary team Saturday afternoon but no team can win them 21l. The locals play Hartford High here tomorrow and this is the game that the team has been pointing for, New Britain, because of its excellent work against Sufficld last week and its excellent defensive play against St. Thomas, stands a big favorite to win over the Capital City ¢ CHURCH LEAGUE PROGRAM —— Pitchers’ Battle Looms as St, Are Scheduled to Play South Matts Church Three games are on the prograin as the Inter-Church baseball league opens its season this evening ut WiHow Brook park.

THOMAS’ COMBINE “Bevo” Hurley, Seminary Pitching Ace, Demonstrates His Right to Title of New Britain Jinx—Again in Fine Form He Allows Locals Scant Thre¢ Hits— Final Score Is 6 to 2—Hartford High Scheduled to Play in This City Tomorrow Afternoon. “Bevo” Hurley, star pitcher for the St. Thomas' seminary baseball team, again demonatrated his right to the title of New Britain high school's jinx Saturday afternoon when he allowed the Red and Goll team three hits and scored a 6 to 2 vietory. A week ago Saturday Hurley was knocking on the door of the hall of fame when he held the Hardware City team without a hit until there were two out in the ninth inning. Then Joe Potts slammed out a hit and ‘spoiled the afternoon for the Saints’ hurler. New Britain did its damage ‘n the early part of the game. In the first inning Wesoly second man up, socked out a three base hit and Joe Bogdanski followed with a two base bingle which sent Andy across th- plate for the first run. In the sec- ond inning Clark hit a double and scored when Burns, St. Thomas' catcher, was guilty of a wild throw and a passed ball. 8t, Thomas' made two runs in its half of the first inning. Curtin, lead-off man, singled and Burns sacrificed him to second. Neimirc singled into center and Curtin scored. Neimiec took second white Wesoly was throwing the ball to the infield and scored when Bogdanski threw poorly to first base to catch Filip on his infield roller, The score was tied at 2-all until the fourth inning and remained at 4-2, St. Thomas' until the cighth inning when the Hartford team made its last two runs. New Britain high failed to make a hit after the second inning. The three hits made by the team were for extra bases, Joe Potts was held without a hit for the first time this season. In the first two games he was the only player who saved the team from a no-hit, shut-out. The New Britain team played a fine defensive game and if it were not for a bad throw by Bogdanski it would have played erroriess ball. The St. Thomas' team was able to make only seven hits off Hermy Schmarr, but it was able to use the hits and four passes to advantage in scoring the victory. Hartford Here Tomorrow Tomorrow afternoon the Red and Gold team plays Hartford public high school, its ancient rival, in this city, and with the excellent showing of the team of late the chances of victory are great. Stan- ley Partyka will probably be called upon te pitch and with a little more offensive power such as that dis- played in the Suffield game the New Britain team is a good bet as a winner, The summary: ST.
